    I'm buying a bricked DS lite.

    No damaged screens or power issues. I just want a DS lite that has been bricked due to a bad firmware change or malware etc.

    PM me or respond here.

    Yeah. There's a custom firmware that gets rid of the health screen and installs special code that will help prevent bricks from malware homebrew. If you don't do it right, you can brick your DS.

    Also, if you use malware homebrew it can damage your firmware (although I'm not sure of the specifics on that).
